The SEC is weighing LSU’s conference membership as a federal court fight over players with NFL experience threatens a founding member’s place. The SEC’s school presidents and chancellors will meet Thursday to discuss whether LSU should remain in the conference. The dispute centers on a league rule that bars teams from returning players with NFL experience to their rosters. LSU helped found the Southeastern Conference in 1933, but that history does not end the dispute. Removing the school would require support from at least two-thirds of the conference’s CEOs. No final vote or removal has taken place. But the SEC has already taken the fight to federal court, raising the stakes well beyond a routine roster disagreement. Two LSU…Open

Dabo Swinney's Clemson program hit its lowest point in nearly three decades Saturday night, falling 51-10 to LSU in a season opener that now forces the university to confront a $57 million question about its head coach's future. LSU piled up 644 total yards of offense, rushed for 309 yards on 58 carries, and held Clemson to fewer than 100 total yards in a game that was never competitive after the opening minutes. The halftime score was 31-3. LSU's defense added 10 tackles for loss and four sacks, limiting Clemson to just 3.0 yards per play. By the time the final whistle sounded, Clemson had absorbed its worst defeat under Swinney, and one of its worst in roughly 30 years. Swinney, now entering his 18th season leading the program,…Open
AMERICANALMANAC (Alan Benson) - Clemson’s humiliating loss to LSU triggers new doubts about Dabo Swinney’s future
LSU’s 51-10 thrashing of Clemson in Baton Rouge has reignited debate about whether Dabo Swinney can still deliver for the Tigers after years of declining results and costly decisions.

LSU’s 51-10 thrashing of Clemson in Baton Rouge has reignited debate about whether Dabo Swinney can still deliver for the Tigers after years of declining results and costly decisions. LSU didn’t just beat Clemson on a stormy Saturday night in Baton Rouge, they steamrolled them. The 51-10 rout wasn’t close, and the box score paints an even grimmer picture for a program that once stood atop college football. Swinney’s Tigers managed just eight first downs to LSU’s 38 and a paltry 40 rushing yards. By halftime, Clemson had already switched quarterbacks. Christopher Vizzina, who started, threw for only 83 yards on 16 attempts and gave up a pick-six. Freshman Tait Reynolds relieved him, tallying just 22 passing yards and…Open

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has cut ties with LSU over the school's decision to give his iconic No. 5 jersey to a current player, a move his family calls a betrayal of promises made. Daniels' attorney, Adam Kenner, sent a cease-and-desist letter to LSU Athletic Director Verge Ausberry demanding the school stop using the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner's name, image, and likeness in any form, NBC News reported . The letter came after LSU allowed sophomore cornerback D.J. Pickett to switch from jersey No. 3 to No. 5, the number Daniels wore during both of his seasons in Baton Rouge. Daniels had made his wishes plain. He did not want another player wearing his number, and he believed LSU would honor that request. The school…Open
AI:Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has issued a cease-and-desist letter to LSU following the university's decision to award his vacated No. 5 jersey to another player. This move, characterized by Daniels' legal counsel as a blatant betrayal of previous agreements, has effectively severed the professional relationship between the star athlete and the institution. The university’s attempt to strip a legendary player of his legacy through administrative maneuvering highlights a complete disregard for individual rights in favor of institutional control.Open
